Denmark is neither the richest nor the biggest country. So what makes its 5.7million people so happy? The Nordic(北欧的)country is famous for its welfare system(福利体系)that includes health care and education. But besides that, the reason why Danish people are so happy is because of their lifestyle.  Have you heard of the word “hygge”?In English, the word can be translated to comfort. But hygge is more than that: having a tasty meal with family, talking with friends under the sunshine on weekends, enjoying classical music or having a movie night. All these things can be called hygge, which is Danish peoples everyday life.  Danish people also have a healthy habit--riding bicycles. In Denmarks capital, Copenhagen, bikes are used about 50 percent of the time on the way to school or work. Biking is not only helpful to reduce pollution for the environment. It is also good for peoples health. Just 30minutes of biking every day adds an average of one to two years to a persons lifetime. Trust is also important for Danish people. They trust others and people they dont even know. In Aarbus, the second biggest city of Denmark, you can see people buy flowers even when the owner isnt there. People just put money in the empty flowerpot. Trust helps make people happy.  “Danes have no great expectations about what they do or what happens to them,” Kaire Christensen, a university teacher said. “They are happy with what they have”. 16.
